Generative memory
Abstract
This paper explores the implications of the psychology of constructive memory for philosophical theories of the metaphysics of memory and for a central question in the epistemology of memory. I first develop a general interpretation of the psychology of constructive memory. I then argue, on the basis of this interpretation, for an updated version of Martin and Deutscher's influential causal theory of memory. I conclude by sketching the implications of this updated theory for the question of memory's status as a generative epistemic source.

One of the only consistent differences between a memory and a vivid imagining is a relative difference in the fluency of construction.
“Thus it may be that one of the only consistent differences between a memory and a vivid imagining is a relative difference in the fluency of construction (Michaelian, 2011), although even fluency differences can dissipate with repeated imaginings (Wiebels et al., 2019).”

Associative strength is likely the mechanism that underlies the fluency of event simulations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
